Nintendo’s latest financial results are in, and included with the various documents is the upcoming release schedule for Switch and 3DS. Aside from a look at what’s to come from a first-party perspective, it also provides an overview of some planned third-party titles. We’ve attached the latest schedule below.


Nintendo has posted another update to the Smash Bros. Blog for Super Smash Bros. Ultimate. This time around, we have an introduction to the Living Room stage.

Fire Emblem Heroes is gearing up for its next summoning event. This time around, the mobile game is adding Eirika: Graceful Resolve as a Legendary Hero.

The new event starts on October 31. We have a trailer promoting the appearance of Eirika: Graceful Resolve below.


Adi Shankar has been responsible for the animated Castlevania series on Netflix having produced two season thus far. His next venture? Speculation points to Shankar possibly working on The Legend of Zelda.

The Wrap claims that Shankar is indeed in talks with Nintendo to produce a series based on Nintendo’s historic franchise. Naturally, there’s no official confirmation at present. But Shankar did tease earlier today that he’s “working with an iconic Japanese gaming company to adapt one of their iconic video game series into a series.”

When Nintendo issues a new firmware update, it sometimes comes with a related controller update. That has happened once again with version 6.1.0.

With the latest Switch upgrade, you’ll find a Joy-Con controller update waiting for you. Access it by visiting the system settings, going to the “Controllers and Sensors” tab, and then selecting “Update Controllers”. We’re never quite sure what’s involved with these controller updates, but there’s certainly no harm in going through with the process.
